Have they still got the outdoor bit where you get p*ss wet through if it rains????

Only ever went a couple of times and that was when I'd had too much beer to protest!!, not been for years, but it was crap when I went, used to attract all the dregs which were kicked out of the decent clubs

Theirs absolutley Nothing Up With It,

Its Like Everyother Club, It Atrracts Certain People

You go to Where Ever Suits You and if the Niche dos'nt then who are you 2 comment. You all go on about 'Niche is a bad place, get shot' and your the people who dont even go so why even bother leaving your comment.

Those people who actually bother going to niche week in week out like myself can give a REAL opinion on the place, not like these people who hear all this B*******t off their friends and they've never even been before

End of day if you dont like it then you dont like it go dance about to po-xy pop music in kingdom with all rest of mingerz that they have their

and if one more person says 'not guna niche i'll get shot' i think im just goin go on one.... Get a life....you got more chance of gettin shot by a cloud full of lemonade, well maybe not, but you get my point. 2 shootings sinse the opening and its like every other night with you people, seriously you need to get your info write before you post

Niche is wicked people in there all on the bassline level, the tunes are wicked

Some people think its a bad place for drugs, fighting etc, but iv seen more trouble in kingdom than niche

Belive me if you ant been or are to scared because people put you off get your self down and bounce to the bassline :banana:

05-07-2005, 10:32

Hi ppl, Im from birmingham and have heard that Niche is the best club around were thinking of coming up but have heard its a bit dodge??? can anybody shed some light pls!!! x

Emilychee

05-07-2005, 10:40

Hi BrummieBird

Do a search of the site, there are loads of threads about niche.

Opinions differ tho, people either seem to love it or hate it. I used to go a few years ago, it was pretty rough but they have toughened up on security since then. Plus ive been since about once and didnt think it was as good as it used to be.

It isnt open as long now, only open till 5am now so you are best getting in early.

Just enjoy yourselve, watch out for dark corners and the few dodgey people. Reckon you'll have a good time.

Em x

BrummieBird

05-07-2005, 10:42

i searched on some thing about somebody getting stabbed and shot!! mind you saying that it happens in brum!!

is it expensive or fairly reasnoble???

spyro2000

05-07-2005, 12:50

You wont get shot. Just go check it out, enjoy yaself, then come back on here and let everyone know how good it was and that you didnt see one bit of violence.

It is pretty pricey though. I think its a tenner for women.

MissGobby

05-07-2005, 12:50

Brummie i have never been bcoz of what people have told me about it, once when my mate was at Niche someone got shot, ive head of stabbings and everything in that place, its where all the druggies go, ya know who only go out on a night out to get high on drugs, heard it isnt a very nice place at all!!!you definatly wouldnt c me there, Kingdom is a good club and isnt full of drugs!

spyro2000

05-07-2005, 12:55

I can see this thread turning into another Niche slanging thread.

You get as much trouble in Niche as you do in kingdom, maybe less. Niche is Sheffields longest running club and the amount if incidents since it opened is very low for the amount of time it has been running. You more likely to get trouble at many of the other clubs in Sheffield.

BrummieBird

05-07-2005, 14:56

its sounds like one of them places where you kinda keep yourself to yourself spose you get violence and drugs whereever you go mind! oh well you never know until you try!!

venger

05-07-2005, 15:08

Well I used to go clubbing in Birmingham regurlarly, about 5-10 years now tho.

(Wobble, Marco Polo, Wheel, Q Club)

Kingdom is commercial, so that would really p*ss you off.

Niche, I have been to once, some rude boys trying to intimidate me and bouncers threatened to kick me in.

Never had any trouble cos there were some sound people there, but if you are looking for friendly, try somewhere else IMO.

I love the reply from MissGobby!! Yea, go to Ming, I mean Kingdom. No, honestly, if you want to see loads of 18 year old girls slaughtered on alcopops and have loads of townie idiots in white shirts fighting and trying to stick their hand up your skirt then it is the place to go. :D
Stick with Niche or go to Stars when they have an all-nighter on, or even the Adelphi.

Just don't go to Kingdom!

if youre asking if its rough, as far as i can see, anywhere that has a metal detector on the door and the doorstaff wear bullet proof vests has got to be worry.

ive never been so i wont comment on what its like music wise.

as for the crowd- i think the metal detector says it all.

saying that- as far as im away its always busy, and people come from all over to go, birmingham, manchester, nottingham, liverpool.

whether its for the music or 'business' though im not sure.

it's defno time to give it up!!!!

Bring back the Arches, thats what I say.
Anyway, I think that anyone who want to travel up from brum to go to Niche must be aware of the music played and the people that go to it else I can't see they would have ever heard if it!

spyro2000

05-07-2005, 22:33

Niche is known down in Birmingham quite well by anyone who likes Speed Garage & Funky house. Althouth I dont think many people travel quite so far ever since they changed the opening hours. Was alright when it was 12 til 12

Open Minded, nah, its plain stupidity, if u really really dint like it the first night you went you wouldnt have gone the second time, its like me going to kingdom or whatever, sayin its the worst club ever, full of divs this that and other then going back just to make sure it is as bad as it was the first time. I Wouldnt say im a fan either, yeh ive been a few times, n i'll be the first to admit thats its a dive but theirs plenty of other places worser off but everyone focus's on niche and its problems. If it was really that bad, like as bad as people like you say it is, why isnt it closed or why dont police do a bust up their? answer me that? And why would people travel from the likes off birmingham, bradford, leeds to go for a night.

any1 notice its the 'oldies' who put it down, all i can say is
geta flares and boogie on down to beegee's
leave the niche to the chavs as you think that their the only people who go
im out

Im afraid Im going to have to agree with Owlschick on this one!

Niche is fcukin sick!! I travel up there every single weekend from Manchester without fail...

If you dont like that music then you dont go? No point in complaining about it?

You may not feel comfy the first time you go, but after that you know what your gettin yourself into and its now like my second home!

They have the odd one or two fights but nothing those meat head bouncers cant handle!

Wahayyyyyyyy Someone actually agree's with me :clap: :clap:

your spot on right thought with what youve put, it is a sick night out just wish ppl would see the good side of it instead of slating it all the time.

your spot on right thought with what youve put, it is a sick night out just wish ppl would see the good side of it instead of slating it all the time.

fully agreed. There are far too many people who slate the club, and the majority of them havent been, and of the ones that claim they have been and slate it off, I bet half of those people havent been either. I havent been for ages Ill admit, but everytime I have been ive loved it and would go again given the chance.

Whats the point in slating a club just because you dont like it.
I dont like Leadmill and places like Corporation etc, but I dont go on threads slating the clubs, I just dont go to the club, Simple as.

Bed, GC1, Arches have all had metal detectors.

I take it that by 'business' you mean drugs? Go in any club and at least a handful of people will be on pills, coke or speed (among others). Not everyone in Niche is pilled up believe it or not. And no I'm not a fan of speed garage before you think that's why I'm sticking up for it :)

Im from Manchester and go Niche every weekend.. Dont take drugs at all, just drink.

Was a bit wary of it at first as everyone was looking at us funny as we had never been before, but after that it was ok and we feel a bit better now.

Ive seen people with pills and weed in there but never anything else.

For those of you that like the music and have never been, I would just say, try it... if you dont like it... you dont have to go again do you?:thumbsup:

Went to Niche last night for the first time.

The people there wouldn't talk to me, they were very unfriendly. The doorman were okay.

I got chatting to the biggest bloke in the world, he looked like he could snap you in half. I think he must have been an alien, how else could he be so big. Funny how this alien was the only friendly guy there.

Cost 15 quid stayed for 15 minutes, not exactly value for money.

Well if you paid £15 then that must have meant you went before 11pm. And ill be the 1st to agree that Niche is a load of crap before 11pm. You need to go after midnight when it 'starts up'. Niche is the lick, not many better places, well not in Sheffield anyway IMO

ok im a little late with this but i am new to the site.

i was a regular at niche bout 7 yrs ago, the only bad thing is that on ur very first initial visit u will probably feel a little uncomfortable, n as the night progresses u ease up n if ya dont ease up then u know not to go again.!!!!

its like this, if u have a passion for the music u will go n just keep urself to urself n happily bounce along wiv ya mates, n if ya dont really like the music then u would be silly to even contemplate goin!!

n the comment that was made about metal detectors, well i took my little un' to disneyland paris last year an guess wot!!!! they had metal detectors checkin u as u went through the gate, yes even the kids, my babi were 7 then n they checked her, so all i say to that 1 is its nice to see that theyve upped the security from wen i used to go.

i havnt been for quite a few years, but the fact that its still goin, and getting busy still must account for summat surely

FROM SHEFFIELD STAR

Hundreds of police in nightclub drugs raid
HUNDREDS of police officers stormed a Sheffield nightclub and arrested 12 people in drugs raid in the early hours of yesterday.
As clubbers partied at Niche on Sidney Street, in the city centre, over 300 officers and specialist sniffer dogs burst inside and executed a search warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act.
So many officers were used in the operation they were taken to the club on buses.
The club was sealed off to prevent revellers leaving and the street outside was cordoned off while the premises and people were searched.
The police helicopter was also used to monitor activity from the air.
Police said a "quantity" of substances were recovered in and around the club, which have all been sent for analysis. Of the 12 people arrested, three were from Manchester, two were from Leeds and the rest were from Sheffield.
They were arrested on suspicion of a number of offences, including possession of Class A drugs and public order offences.
A meeting is due to be held between police and Sheffield's licensing authority to discuss the raid and the future of the club.
A police spokeswoman said: "Twelve people have been arrested and are being questioned in relation to a number of alleged offences.
"There will be a meeting early in the week between police and the licensing authority to discuss the next step in relation to these premises."
Niche, which opened 11 years as an "all-nighter" venue, has previously been on the wrong end of headlines.
In June last year a man in his 20s took a bullet in the stomach in a drive-by shooting outside the venue.
And in 1998, then Niche boss Michael Baxendale - brother of the club's present owner Steve - was fatally stabbed outside the same building.

I didnt know how long Leadmill had been running to be honest, so fair enough, Niche is certainly one of the longest running clubs though.

So you are admitting that you commenting on a club you have never been to and know nothing about?

I take it you think no one has been murdered outside any other club in Sheffield?

Do you think no other clubs in Sheffield have been raided?

Do you think the Niche owner is the only sheffield club owner that has been done over?

Do you think Chavs only go to Niche?

Sounds like you dont know what you are talking about to be honest. its not a put down, its an observation :)

"POLICE and council bosses today asked Sheffield magistrates to close down a city nightclub under tough legislation designed to shut down drug dens.

A temporary closure notice detailing their intention to apply for Niche nightclub to be closed under "crackhouse" legislation for three months was served on the management of the Sidney Street venue yesterday afternoon.
The notice closed the club temporarily pending today's court hearing under anti-social behaviour legislation designed to shut down crack dens.
The hearing was adjourned until December 12 - and the court heard the club must remain closed to the public until then.
Only the three club directors - Steven Baxendale, Brian Kay and Christopher Bailey - will be allowed to enter the building, along with the resident caretaker and one workman who can enter under the supervision of police to repair two doors damaged in the raid.
If next month's hearing is successful the venue will not be able to trade as a club for three months.
Before today's hearing Brian Kay, managing director of Established World Ltd which part-owns the club, denied the premises was used for drug dealing.
He said they intended to deny the allegations "profusely". He added: "We have received no documentation to support the allegations which the police are making.
"We will be looking to strike this application out on the grounds that it has been blown out of all proportion - none of the allegations are true."
The closure notice was issued after more than 300 officers - some of them armed - raided the club in the early hours of Sunday.
The street was cordoned off with a ring of officers to prevent anyone trying to escape and the force helicopter was used to monitor developments from the air.
So many officers were used in the raid buses were laid on to transport them to the venue.
They erected airport-style scanners supplied by the Home Office to search revellers for drugs and firearms, even checking clubbers' shoes.
Police sniffer dogs were also used in the operation.
Officers recovered a variety of substances which have been sent away for analysis.
Twelve people were arrested on suspicion of offences, including possession of Class A drugs.
Three were men from Manchester, two were men from Leeds and six men and a woman were from Sheffield. All but two, who were wanted by police working on other cases, were released on police bail pending further inquiries. One of the men was taken to Manchester where he was wanted on warrant by police and has subsequently appeared in court. The second man appeared at Sheffield Magistrates Court on Monday where he was sentenced to 40 hours community service for assault"

02-12-2005, 15:43

I used to freqent Niche when i was a youngster and I tell you I loved it! There has been times where i myself have got into a bit of trouble in there, but nothing to do with the club itself! Just trouble that I had and we happened to resolve it in there! Stupid really!

Regarding the raid! To be honest I am suprised this kind of thing didn't happen sooner! Purely if anything else based on 'reputation'. You have to admit regular Niche goers were probably suprised when 'SuperCLub' republic was raided. I know i was saying, god good job it wasn't Niche! As Niche does and did have a 'reputation' AND THAT WAS IT!

As for people commenting about all Niche goers being Chavs. I have to disagree! I am certainly no chav and have a respectable job, I go and enjoy niche for the music and the atmosphere!

As for increased security, this is purely to protect people!Yeah i know some of the doormen can be arseholes, but this is cos they have to deal with idiots thinking they are bad turning up as if they own the place, same as any club!! This is a must and may look heavy... but thats what the world, not just Niche is coming to nowdays!!

02-12-2005, 16:15

iv'e been once to ze niche so it doesn't make me an expert, but It wasn't as bad as everyone (who's never been) say it is. Nobody could sneak a gun or a blade in there because of the checks on the way in.. this makes you feel a lot better about going in..

It seems to me that people are so caught up in stereo types that they can't just judge anything for what it is..

I'm not a fan of the music and probably wouldn't have gone if I wern't smashed.. but i managed to have a good time and a little rave.. didn't get hassled, didn't even get the **** eye or a push (which is more than I can say for the crasher, kingdom etc.) So to the people whov'e never been and recite what their mates have told them.. pull your head out of your arse yea?

Erm, you think two shootings isn't bad?? I don't want to go to a place that has had ANY shootings!!

I lived very close to there last year and could see Niche from the window of my flat. Someone got stabbed while I lived there.

I don't think anyone's trying to offend anyone about it it's just it isn't really a safe place and no, not everyone likes that kind of music.

Yes ANY shooting is bad, but this has nothing to do with Niche the club.

There have been stabbings and shootings all over the place, what makes you think it is just Niche? :loopy:

I absolutly love speed garage/niche/bassline whatever you want to call it but iv never been 2 Niche. I really wanted to go but the only thing stopping me is im in a wheelchair n iv been told its not accesible. Loads of my mates go and theyv never had any trouble, n they go every saturday.

You would still be able to go in a wheelchair, it just means that you wont be able to go upstairs to the 1st floor.

Perhaps you should give it a go, or maybe email Niche to see what they say about coming in a wheel chair. :thumbsup:

No, if anything the ground floor is the bigger floor. Its hard to explain, but there will be plenty of space for the wheel chair downstairs. There are also seating areas that you can go to if it starts to get a bit too crowded where there is also space for wheel chairs.

Ive seen people in there who have crutches, I know its not the same thing but its the nearest example I can come across lol.

There is perfect access for you to get in the club. The only steps in Niche are the steps which lead up to the upper floor, but you can stay down on the bottom floor and enjoy yourself.

Hi OwlsChick, would just like to point out that you may want to get your facts 100% before you post! The girl you mentioned wasn't stabbed at or even outside Flares, She had been in Flares drinking and when she left was unfortunately attacked further down the street outside another bar. The girl who stabbed her hadn't been in Flares either, I won't mention the bar she did get stabbed outside of as I unlike yourself don't want to bad mouth venues just because everyone is having a go at Niche! For the record that place HAS had more violent incidents than ANYWHERE in Sheffield.

It may not have been flares that the girl who stabbed her had been to, but the point is still valid, so no need to be so harsh. The point is that other clubs have trouble in or around them, not just Niche, so im not sure what you are trying to say.

And maybe Niche has had more trouble than any club in Sheffield, but when it has been open for around 11 years IIRC, then what what do you expect?

Hi OwlsChick, would just like to point out that you may want to get your facts 100% before you post! The girl you mentioned wasn't stabbed at or even outside Flares, She had been in Flares drinking and when she left was unfortunately attacked further down the street outside another bar. The girl who stabbed her hadn't been in Flares either, I won't mention the bar she did get stabbed outside of as I unlike yourself don't want to bad mouth venues just because everyone is having a go at Niche! For the record that place HAS had more violent incidents than ANYWHERE in Sheffield.

My facts are right. from what ive heard they both was in flares, fight broke out outside just at bottom of road, prove me wrong?? you cant because thats what happend know it all!! anyways the whole point was saying their isnt trouble at only niche like you people on here think. YOU Need to get your facts right about that, happens everywhere round sheffield.
and im not bad mouthing venues, your bad mouthing niche when really you havnt got a clue, saying bad things about it what arnt even true.

Is that right owlschick! Actually I can prove you wrong as I was there. Also check out the last newspaper articles. I also know quite a bit more than you about what happens in Shef city centre as I'm on the clubwatch committee. I also happen to think that ALL the clubs have their place, if people want to listen to different types of music then its good that Sheffield caters to ALL people.
You are obviously a fan of Niche and therefore won't accept anybody elses opinion and this thread is getting stupid now!

Just been reading back and it is all getting rather silly. I think the point is definitely if you don't like Niche then don't go there! Niche customers prob don't like other clubs so does that mean these clubs should be closed down? There are a lot of clubbers in Shef and hopefully ALL get catered for. No point in getting into a huge argument about what clubs are safe and which ones aren't when the simple fact is you can get mugged/ approached by dealers/ attacked shopping in Tescos!

After reading this thread, the thing that puts me off going to Niche is that most of the people who recommend it sound like Viccy Pollard!
